Love this. Reminds me of a quote from Zen Master Shunryu Suzuki: "Rather be grateful for the weeds in your mind, for eventually they will enrich your practice."
I watched Lady Jane only for the first time tonight. I was immediately taken by the reference to Plato at the beginning of the film. I would love to hear her interpretation Plato's Phaedrus, Diotima's speech from the Symposium, anything by Baudelaire, Faun's Head by Rimbaud, The Owl and the Pussycat, and Wild Nights by Dickinson-Emily that is, or any of my poems which are not yet available to the public. It is unfortunate that she does not have an authentic Instagram account. I mean, the Queen has one.
External descriptions that reduce the spiritual precise descriptions into an emotion of humility allow for islands of sanity in an otherwise turbulent ocean. In my opinion that's why wisdom has already mattered more to me than truth because wisdom reflects adaptations to individual issues that allow for courage and individuality, whereas truth seems to assume all the terrain to be identical and if people only were true then everyone would act normally. That's why wisdom is beautiful and empathetic and truth tends to be an ugly and brutal mirroring process. I prefer to be wise and let others strain for truth because the truth is foolish.
Who do you imagine you are talking to with this type of monologue where there are no characters? Same question - for how do you story-tell to an audience? Do you imagine someone you know that you are talking to, for example?
Rumi's words speak over 800 years as though he were with you in the room.
I love her. She could read me an obituary and it would sound wonderful.😂
Literally and figuratively dead 😂😂
I totally agree, awesome woman ❤
Lol that’s true, I love her to recite the poems or just note , still sounds very pleasing
I could watch and listen to her read poetry all day.
she's so lovely
Love Rumi. Excellently read by Helena Bonham Carter.
Yes, she is excellent.
This woman is so beautiful and never ages. Stay young Helena!
Greetings from the hometown of Rumi 🎉
she's so beautiful.
Yes, she is.
A lovely, sensitive reading.
Love this. Reminds me of a quote from Zen Master Shunryu Suzuki: "Rather be grateful for the weeds in your mind, for eventually they will enrich your practice."
Oh what a treat. Good to see you, Helena!
Wonderful....just recently watched two of her movies, Sweeny Todd and Howard's End. 🇮🇪 💚

Обожаю Хелену 😍
I just love her
She reads beautifully... but we didn't need the lute, which was only a distraction. "Less is more."
I liked the lute. Not her feet.
Bellissima e bravissima!!! Ti ascolterei per sempre, Principessa!
Lovely voice. 🌺🌹💐
J'aime beaucoup cette actrice, depuis '' Chambre avec vue '' de James Ivory ...
Vraiment!

@@MinaCharni Sorry, I'll have to get back to you as it's late here and my brain barely speaks English, let alone la belle Francais.

i really appreciate your perspective
Te amo Helena
Especially when cousin Peggy May Smith or your Aunt Flow come to visit.
Lovely
that girl you impress by acting interested when she reads poetry. 🙂
You must be a real catch.
Her feet got in the way.
Thanks, but nix the background music, please.
❤❤
Такой милый голос у неё😍
Anyone knows the name of the book???
Is this poem a reference to shadow work and spirit guides?

Is that her house?
*When Helena BC is speaking, don't put that awful 🎹 noise, that's ruining it 😢*
Why oh why the irritating background music 😢😢😢
An intriguing poem, engagingly read, but way too much foot movement …
